Reviews for Barney - Barney's Great Adventure: The Movie
With very little modification, this archly innocuous children's musical could have been marketed as a sequel to Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

Top CriticWhat is it about that big purple dinosaur?

Although technically superior to the low-rent Barney videos, pic, which was shot in the country near Montreal, still has a bargain-budget look.

Top CriticThis spin-off from the TV series featuring the large purple felt dinosaur of awesome good nature is emetically wholesome.

To those of us on the greying side of five years old, Barney looks like an eggplant and has a rigor-mortis smile, no shoulders, a huge rear end and the sort of nervous giggle that makes you think he has something to hide.

Top CriticBarney looks both more real and more magical on video; on film, he's clearly a doofus in a felt outfit.

Top CriticThat he has become a lightning rod for adult anger is, however, something of a curiosity. Until you spend some time in his world, that is.

A movie this cheerful is destined to be awful to audiences over ten years of age...

Top CriticPre-schoolers, however, will find enough to keep them occupied, and won't mind the cheesy effects.
01/01/00
Top CriticIt's all rather clumsy and routine.
01/01/00
Although its entertainment value to adults is negligible, it is a safe, harmless bet for families, one parents will neither regret nor fondly remember after it's over.
01/01/00
Although the film is longer than the television and video segments children this age are accustomed to, the pacing is brisk enough to hold them.
01/01/00
Top CriticThe movie has a flimsy plot, but who cares? Barney, one of the most popular television characters in history, is what viewers want to see, and there's plenty of him.

Top CriticIf you like him on TV, you'll like him here, too.
